Title:
Stability of the Virome in Lab- and Field-Collected Aedes albopictus Mosquitoes across Different Developmental Stages and Possible Core Viruses in the Publicly Available Virome Data of Aedes Mosquitoes
Description:
<jats:p>
Our study revealed that the virome was very stable across all developmental stages of both lab-derived and field-collected
<jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Aedes albopictus</jats:named-content>
. The data representing the core virome in lab
<jats:italic>A. albopictus</jats:italic>
proved the vertical transmission route of these viruses, forming a “vertically transmitted core virome.” Field mosquitoes also contained this stable vertically transmitted core virome as well as additional viruses, which probably represented “environment-derived core virome” and which therefore were less stable over time and geography. By further screening publicly available SRA viral metagenomic data sets from mosquitoes belonging to the genus
<jats:italic>Aedes</jats:italic>
, some of the identified core ISVs were shown to be present in the majority of SRAs, such as Phasi Charoen-like phasivirus and Guadeloupe mosquito virus. How these core ISVs influence the biology of the mosquito host and arbovirus infection and evolution deserves to be further explored.
